“I truly believe I’d be a great mum if she would just let me sleep” - a statement that often plagued my thoughts in those early weeks and months. Sleep is so precious and impacts so many other aspects of life. Equally, it’s one of the biggest adjustments new parents go through when their new bundle arrives. I feel so passionately about the topic of sleep and so strongly about sharing the reality of what the forth trimester can bring so we can normalise, relieve some pressure and know that good habits can be instilled as time goes on even if it feels impossible in the early days of motherhood.
